NYCE Wheels is a retail Bike shop in NYC and they did an incredibly great YOU TUBE video review of Orp here.
It’s really thorough and pretty funny at the end.
Kind of makes us at Orp feel a little flat footed as we need to do a video like this!

Suburban Assault
Suburban Assault posted a a great review of Orp.
The blog’s author was an early Orp adopter on Kickstarter.
Thanks SA!
All HAIL THE BLACK MARKET
This is the second time Stevil has given Orp a look. AHTBM had given the Orp concept a thumbs up during the Kickstarter campaign and this time he had real production units in his possession.
His Orp review is really mostly about the author, of course, but he put some nice pictures of Orp in the piece so I’m returning the favor.
The thing that ‘s cool about AHTBM is that the blog’s author, Stevil Kinevil, is a real bike industry veteran and he doesn’t pull any punches.
The Collective Loop
The Collective Loop is a place where art, design, music, technology and more collectively loop.
This is the website’s self describer and it’s a good curator of cool stuff. We are certainly honored to be recognized.
Same story, they love Orp. Their quote is: ” this thing is Orptastic”. Thanks Collective Loop!

Forbes!
Orp made the first photo entry in Zach Schildshorn‘s {great name, by the way, but Orps are for everyone} article about alternative transportation post the Segway.
Mr. Schildshorn explains that the bicycle has very quickly become the transportation alternative to the car and that several entrepreneurs have embraced this fact
to make the bike safer or better somehow. Here’s the link and here’s the author.
Pedal NC reviews Orp!
Pedal NC gives a production Orp a great review.
Here’s a little of waht Jertemy wrote:
“On the other occasions they… well… they popped their head up! The combination between pleasant sound and flashing light is just the perfect culmination of safety needed on a bike. But when we quit pushing the trigger up, and started pulling it down, the quickness of the head turns was much more noticeable. Even the passing cars would tap their brakes as I sounded the horn. It was an amazing experience to say the least.”

All Season Cyclist
All Season Cyclist (ASC) is a great site filled with great reviews from a committed cyclist in North East Illinois.
The author rides year round and says if you have the right gear, weather is never an issue.
Of late, he averages 6000 or so miles per year on his bike.
ASC gives Orp a great review and really raises expectations. Thanks, I think.
MTBR
MTBR is by mountain bikers and for mountain bikers and they got a preview of Orp when we
had pre-production samples. Here’s the story.
What’s important here is Orp is not only for the road. How many times have you almost run over a runner
on a shared trail? With Orp you can warn runners, hikers and slower rider as you approach blind turns.
